In situ observation of the electrically induced crack growth and domain-structure evolution is carried out for [100]- and [101]-oriented 72%Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3–28% PbTiO3 (PMN–PT 72/28) ferroelectric single crystals under static (poling) and alternating electric fields. On the same poling electric field, domains are in the stable engineered domain state where four equivalent polarization variants coexist for [100]-oriented single crystal, while parallel lines representing the 71° domain boundaries appear for [101]-oriented one. Under the same cyclic electric field, the [100]-oriented single crystal shows much higher crack propagation resistance than that of a [101]-oriented crystal. Apart from the material aspects, such as crystallographic fracture anisotropy and non-180° domain boundary structure, crack boundary condition plays an important role in determining the crack propagation behavior.

The evolution of the domain structures of [001]-oriented relaxor ferroelectric 0.93PbZn1/3Nb2/3O3-0.07PbTiO3 (PZN-7%PT) single crystals as a function of temperature was investigated in situ by using piezoresponse force microscopy (PFM). It was found that the local domain structure of PZN-7%PT single crystals at room temperature is rhombohedral with nanoscale twins. Temperature-dependent domain structures showed that the phase transition process is a collective process and that the sample underwent a sequence of rhombohedral (R) → monoclinic (Mc) → tetragonal (T) → cubic (C) phase transformations when the temperature increased from 25 °C to 170 °C. The results provide direct observation of the phase transition evolution of PZN-7%PT single crystals as a function of temperature, which is of great significance to fully understand the relationships between the domain structure and phase structure of PZN-7%PT single crystals.

ABSTRACTA phase-field model for predicting the domain structure evolution in constrained ferroelectric thin films is developed. It employs an analytical elastic solution derived for a constrained film with arbitrary eigenstrain distributions. In particular, the model is applied to the domain structure evolution during a cubic→tetragonal proper ferro- electric phase transition. The effect of substrate constraint on the volume fractions of domain variants, domain-wall orientations, and domain shapes is studied. It is shown that the predicted results agree very well with existing experimental observations in ferroelectric thin films.
